The man was taken away after BCI Security acted on a message from a Whatsapp group reporting a naked man under the Christiaan de Wet bridge on Hendrik Potgieter Road, allegedly exposing himself to motorists.

Upon arrest, in an attempt to find out the man’s identity, he was profiled through the national police system and astonishingly he was found to be wanted for theft and was arrested.

Gary Jordaan from BCI told Northsider that the man was indeed arrested and appeared in court where he was released.
